John needs to purchase 100 chocolates from three different shops and he has exactly 100 rupees to do that which he must spend entirely. He must buy at least 1 Chocolate from each shop.
The first shop is selling each chocolate at 5 paise, the second is selling at 1 rupee and the third is selling at 5 rupees.
How many chocolates should he buy from each shop?
80 pieces at Shop 1 (5 paise); 19 at Shop 3(Rs. 5) and ONE at Shop 2 (1 Rupee)
80 X 0.05 = 4
19 x 5.00 = 95
1 x 1 = 1
Total Count: 80 + 19 + 1 = 100
Total Amount = 4 + 95 + 1 = 100
This is a rephrased version of the wines puzzle that was added a couple of days back.
